Noida: In a stunning turn of stunning Noida Police have apprehended Zoya Khan, a woman accused of impersonating high-ranking government officials, including IAS, IPS, and IFS officers. The 28-year-old allegedly utilized spoof calls to intimidate and pressure various police and government officials, claiming to be a senior officer from Noida. The investigation commenced when Zoya contacted the Station House Officer (SHO) of Thana Sector 142, introducing herself as a senior officer and pressuring him regarding a legal case.
Further inquiries revealed that her call originated from a server located in Dubai, raising alarm bells for local authorities.
